With the 2022 GRAMMY Awards mere days away, the excitement continues to build for the event.
Every field is jam-packed with the who’s who in the music industry. Take for example the Album of the Year category. Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett, Lil Nas X, H.E.R., Taylor Swift, Jon Batiste, Doja Cat, Justin Bieber, and Kanye West are all nominated.
But who will win and who should win?
Join us below to find out…
Who will win: Olivia Rodrigo – ‘Sour’
There are many albums that had an impact last year, but the safest bet for winning Album of the Year easily goes to ‘Sour.’ Not only has it been the most successful album out of the nominees, but it also contained the most hits and was one of the most acclaimed ones as well. On paper it’s a shoo-in, so expect a big night from this budding icon.
Who should win: Taylor Swift – ‘Evermore’
After taking home the top prize last year with her landmark ‘Folklore’ album, Swift’s follow-up ‘Evermore’ has been just as brilliant and successful. Having become a #1 album and spawning a #1 single, ‘Evermore’s commercial success was matched by critical-acclaim. It’s easy to see why. Both ‘Folklore’ and ‘Evermore’ contain some of Swift’s best writing and production across her legendary discography, so on a technical level this should win and in a perfect world, it would.
Dark Horse: Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett – ‘Love For Sale’
This album has a long shot to win, but it very well might. Together, both artists have 31 GRAMMY Awards with Bennett winning in this category before in 1994. It’s clear that both are GRAMMY favorites and the fact that this is Bennett’s last album makes it even more plausible that they will come from behind and take the top prize.

Who the f*** cares
Troll stop it with your trollish ways! You could never be Beyonce, have a lot of money, and not use the metro or Lyft to get where you need to be in life!
You are absolutely pathetic and you know it!
And who the f*** are you? A copycat batch who can get the f*** off my deck. I know it feels good but you need to get your s*** together
Can someone explain to me why Olivia Rodrigo is popular? Idgi.
The sound of her voice comforts t*** girls just learning to finger themselves
